Notes :

1 – Btw 2005Mar25 was not radio but press conference. But maybe press conference was broadcasted via radio too. Idk.

2 – I think each of the above sources are incomplete, but together they’re complete. Eg Source 1 doesn’t have the full 2000Aug09 but Source 2 does. Eg Source 2 doesn’t have the full 1999Jan14 but Source 1 does.

Source for transcripts – 2023Sep07 Update – Richard Bean HAS FULL TRANSCRIPTS

Australian mathematician Richard Bean posted FULL TRANSCRIPTS. Richard additionally posted a summary! ( Note : 2005Mar25 & 2005Mar29 are mixed up, but I believe everything else is correct ) – found out from twitter ( elahieh )

After a few hours of transcription with #DeepGram #AskYourPDF summarises 34 hours of interviews with Bobby Fischer (110 MP3 files from 1999-2005). Great work! "Is there anything in the document that is not about chess, anti-semitism, personal grievances or persecution?" pic.twitter.com/7kkckmGtjx

Re (5) yeah 2004Oct11, 15 years before Wesley So wins the inaugural and so far ONLY classical WFRCC.

08:01 [Speaker:3] So what is your advice to the Filipino chess players?
08:06 [Speaker:0] My advice is to give up chess and take up Fischer Random. Give up? Yeah.

Some stats:

Interview date \ Interview length	Total	33:33:15
(Since the average is 1 hour, imagine it’s like a Western live series of 3 seasons, each w/ 12 episodes?)	Average	00:57:31
2001Sep11	Min ( Shortest )	00:12:00
2004Dec31	2nd Min ( 2nd shortest )	00:17:46
2000Sep26	Max ( Longest )	01:58:48

Days since last interview	Total	2833
	Average	80.94
2004Aug20	Min	0
1999Jan14 ( the 2nd interview )	2nd Min	1
2006Oct16 ( the last interview )	Max	519

80% are on Philippine radio :

Country	# interviews	%age
Hungary	1	2.86%
Philippines	28	80.00%
Iceland	4	11.43%
Columbia	1	2.86%
Russia	1	2.86%
Total	35	100%

Of those 28 Philippine / Filipinx / Filipino / Filipina interviews, 60.71% are from Baguio. Almost half ( 48.57% ) of all 35 interviews are from Baguio. Bobby’s radio interviews in Baguio are all I guess on Bombo Radyo Philippines – specifically Bombo Radyo Baguio where Bobby’s interviewed by Pablo Mercado, and sometimes Eugene Torre is there.

Philippine province	# interviews	%age Philippine interviews	%age interviews
Baguio	17	60.71%	48.57%
Manila	9	32.14%	25.71%
Dagupan	2	7.14%	5.71%
Total	28	100.00%	80.00%
